GoPro Hero Gets a Wider View
For action camera enthusiasts, there's good news from GoPro. The GoPro Hero, which launched in India back in September 2024, has received a significant upgrade. You can now record 4K video in a wider 4:3 aspect ratio! Previously, 4K recording was limited to the 16:9 aspect ratio. This free upgrade is available through the GoPro Quik companion app. Now you can capture more of the action!
This is a fantastic upgrade for anyone who wants a more cinematic feel to their videos. The 4:3 aspect ratio provides a taller image, allowing you to capture more vertical content and reframe your shots in post-production.

The tech scene in India is buzzing with activity, and artificial intelligence is taking center stage. WAN-IFRA recently hosted its second Bangalore AI Forum, bringing together media executives from nearly 20 publishing companies. The forum focused on exploring the latest advancements, trends, and applications of AI in the media industry. It seems Indian publishers are moving from cautious adoption to full-fledged implementation of AI technologies.
